Question

David hikes from his campsite to the ranger's cabin and then back to his campsite. How far does David hike? A 1/8 mile B 1/2 mile C 5/8 mile D 3/4 mile

Answer 1

The distance David hiked can be determined as,

`\begin{gathered} d=(1)/(8)mile+(1)/(8)mile \\ =(1+1)/(8)\text{mile} \\ =(2)/(8)mile \\ =(1)/(4)mile \end{gathered}`

Thus, option (c) is the correct solution.
